What customers say
Moonfleet Farm gets high marks for its roomy, level sites, super friendly owners, and gorgeous countryside setting. Guests love the clean facilities, unique shepherd hut showers, and peaceful vibe. It’s a family favorite with animals & play space. Great for exploring, with a pub nearby. Minor notes: farm dogs sometimes roam; could use more toilets during busy times.

Fantastic stay in the country throughly recommend!
Power optional grass tent, campervan or trailer tent campsite
Liked This is a very relaxed and peaceful campsite right in the countryside. It is a working farm with animals surrounding the campsite. There are some lovely touches like some of the toilet and shower facilities being in shepherds huts. There are 4 cubicles with a shower and toilet on each which is convenient, there is an additional separate toilet too. As well as washing up facilities and a washing machine and tumble dryer should you need it. The owners were really accommodating and couldn’t do enough to help. They have fire pits you can borrow and logs and kindling you can buy from them. We had some lovely evening camp fires and some fantastic views of the milkyway. The pub across the field is lovely, if a bit pricey, but a nice break from cooking at camp. The farm shop just across the road from the pub is more than a farm shop, they sell a bit of everything, really convenient if you should need any supplies. Apart from that the nearest supermarket is 20mins away in blandford forum, a cute little town I recommend a wonder around with a lovely walk way along the river stour.
Throughly recommend this site for a slice of peace and quiet in the countryside.

Quiet campsite with great view of the night sky
Power optional grass tent, campervan or trailer tent campsite
Liked Peaceful campsite near to the picturesque village of Milton Abbas. With limited light leaking from towns, on a clear night you can see alot of stars. Large pitches, amenties easy to find and use. Use of fire pits were an added bonus. The owners couldn't do enough, all questions answered. A great little getaway, just wish we had more time to relax sooner. They also had a pool table and a ping-pong table for the kids of an afternoon. A 5-min walk to the local pub across the fields. Perfect.

Book here, you won't regret it!
Power optional grass tent, campervan or trailer tent campsite
Liked Everything! This is our 4th visit to Moonfleet, it's just perfect. Linda, Clive and Rowena are all lovely people and very friendly. The shower and toilet facilities are well looked after. The sunsets are out of this world and with no light pollution the stars all come out to play it's a spectacular sight. Kids always make friends and can safely play over the campsite field. Lots of animals to see. It's also a perfect base to visit the D day museum Portland, Weymouth, Swanage, Corfe Castle, Monkey World, Bovington Tank Museum, West Bay, Lyme Regis, the rest of the Jurassic Coast and much more!
We will be returning next year as soon as the kids break up in July.
Disliked Our stay went too quickly!

Lovely camping
Power optional grass tent, campervan or trailer tent campsite
Liked Good facilities, large pitches, we took over non electric pitch facing the pond, not having any other tents near by we could totally relax. Took the nice walk up to the fishing ponds, may try fishing next time we're there. We had a lovely relaxing time and would definitely be coming back.
